1、Designation: E3134 17Standard Specification forTransportation Tunnel Structural Components and PassiveFire Protection Systems1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E3134; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision
2、, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONFire poses a serious threat to the structural stability of tunnels as shown by real fires in tunnels ove
3、rthe last decade. The damage is a serious threat to life safety and results in costly repairs and lostservice time. The damage is mitigated with heat-resistant concrete and passive fire-resistive materialsand systems. The result is limited spalling of concrete, limited structural damage of the concr
4、ete viacracks to the cold zone, and limited temperature increases of the reinforcing steel. Further, thefire-resistive methods employed are also optionally evaluated against common environmentalexposures, which could adversely affect the performance or fire-resistance rating.1. Scope1.1 This specifi
5、cation is applicable to the fire resistance ofconcrete tunnel linings, fire-resistive materials, and structuraltunnel members.1.2 Concrete mix design, tunnel linings, and passive fireprotection methods are specific to each tunnel project. There-fore results of the spalling test are only valid for th
6、e specificmaterials and systems employed during each test, notwith-standing maximum and minimum limitations.1.3 Tunnels are potentially exposed to ground water, eventhose passing through elevated terrain, such as mountains, roadsalt, and maintenance surface washing. Consideration shall begiven to po
7、tential adverse effects that result, such as materialdegradation due to these exposures.1.4 Movement joints shall be considered and their impact onthe overall fire resistance shall be assessed by testing. Testsshall be conducted as a system.1.5 This specification does not address mechanical attach-m
8、ent methods for equipment due to the vast variety of possiblemethods and loads. However, consideration shall be given tomethods that appreciably affect the concrete temperature dur-ing the heating conditions. Consideration shall be given to asecond test conducted with the attachment to evaluate thee
9、ffect. The attachment test shall include the largest diameteranchor, the deepest installed anchor, and the largest loadapplied to the anchor. This requirement results in a singleanchor being tested or multiple anchors being tested. Ifmultiple anchors are required to be tested, then each shall betest
10、ed under its maximum load.1.6 This specification requires testing of both horizontal andvertical orientations. For fire-resistive materials, it is generallyaccepted that the horizontal orientation represents the worstcase test scenario.1.7 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.
11、 The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to inch-pound units that are provided for informa-tion only and are not considered standard.1.8 This standard is used to measure and describe theresponse of materials, products, or assemblies to heat andflame under controlled conditions, b
12、ut does not, by itself,incorporate all factors required for fire hazard or fire riskassessment of the materials, products, or assemblies underactual fire conditions.1.9 Fire testing is inherently hazardous. Adequate safe-guards for personnel and property shall be employed inconducting these tests.1.
13、10 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety, health, and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

20、o concrete mix design andfire-resistive materials, and the potential impact of environ-mental exposures (optional). A minimum of one fire test isrequired for each assembly, configuration, and orientation. Forcases where the concrete mix design is intended to address thefire load independent of fire-
21、resistive materials, the SpallingTest in accordance with 9.1 is applicable. For cases wherestandard or general concrete design mix is intended andprotected by fire-resistive materials, the Fire-Resistive MaterialTest is applicable. For cases where both the concrete designmix and fire-resistive mater

The environmental tests are performedin advance of the fire testing to evaluate environmental impact.Included are ground
36、water test, road salt test, and tunnelinterior surface washing. For more details on the environmen-tal tests, see Appendix X1.8. Control of Fire Tests for Fire Resistive Materials8.1 Time-Temperature Curve:8.1.1 The fire exposure shall be controlled to conform to themodified Rijkswaterstaat (RWS) cu
37、rve, taken from 2008-Efectis-R0695, presented in Tables 1 and 2, and as shown inFig. 1.8.1.2 As an option, an alternate time-temperature curve ispresented in AnnexA1. The alternative time-temperature curvepresented incorporates the highest temperatures of the variousfurnace fire exposures known at t
38、he time this document waswritten. The intent is to provide a worst case test to allow formultiple approvals from one test.8.1.3 The samples shall undergo a cool down period bydecreasing the furnace temperature by 10 C (18 F) perminute for 100 min, see Table 2.8.2 Furnace Temperature:8.2.1 The temper
39、ature fixed by the curve shall be theaverage temperature obtained from the readings of thermo-couples symmetrically distributed within the test furnace toshow the temperature near all parts of the assembly. Use aminimum of three thermocouples, with no fewer than fivethermocouples per 9.3 m2(100 ft2)
40、 of exposed floor surface,and no fewer than nine thermocouples per 9.3 m2(100 ft2)ofexposed wall surface.8.2.2 The furnace thermocouples shall be Type B, platinum-rhodium, 0.81 mm (0.032-in.) wire, exposed junction thermo-couples. One conductor contains 30 % rhodium and the otherconductor contains 6
41、 % rhodium.8.2.3 For samples in the horizontal orientation, place thejunction of the thermocouple 305 mm (12.0 in.) away from theexposed face of the sample.8.2.4 For samples in the vertical orientation, place thejunction of the thermocouple 152 mm (6.0 in.) away from theexposed face of the sample.8.
42、2.5 Read and record the temperature at intervals notexceeding 1 min.8.2.6 The accuracy of the furnace control shall be such thatthe area under the temperature-time curve, obtained by aver-aging the results from the furnace thermocouple readings, iswithin 15 % of the corresponding area under the stan
43、dardtemperature-time curve presented in Tables 1 and 2, and asshown in Fig. 1, for the time period between 5 and 10 min,10 % for the time period between 10 and 30 min and 5 % from30 min to the end of the test.NOTE 1The spalling of concrete will expose new, cold concretesurfaces that will increase th
44、e need for energy input in order to maintainfurnace control within tolerance.8.3 Furnace Pressure:8.3.1 Measure the differential pressure between the exposedand unexposed surfaces of the test assembly. The pressure shallbe measured using a tee-shaped probe, or a tube probe, asshown in Fig. 2, manufa
45、ctured from stainless steel, or othersuitable material.8.3.2 Measure the pressure by means of a manometer orequivalent transducer. The manometer or transducer shall becapable of reading 2.5-Pa (0.01-in. H2O) increments with ameasurement precision of 1.25 Pa (0.005 in. H2O).8.3.3 Horizontal SpecimenT
46、he required differential pres-sure plane shall be located within the furnace 305 mm (12 in.)below the specimen.8.3.4 Vertical SpecimenThe required differential pressureplane shall be located within the furnace at the mid-height ofthe specimen.8.3.5 Following the first 5 min of the test, the pressure
47、 shallbe controlled at below 50 Pa (0.2 in. H2O), then following thefirst 10 min, the pressure shall be controlled at 20 6 4 Pa (0.086 0.016 in. H2O).NOTE 2It is recognized that the dynamic nature of the furnace limitsthe ability of pressure control within the furnace, so there is a greatertolerance
48、 for the first 10 min of startup. However, the goal is to achieve astable pressure of 20 Pa as quickly as possible.TABLE 1 Tunnel Fire Test Time-Temperature Curve for Control ofFire TestsTime (min) Temperature C (F)0 20 (68)3 891 (1635)5 1141 (2085)10 1199 (2190)30 1299 (2370)60 1349 (2460)90 1299 (
